/Start file/
As to your somewhat strange but none the less important request, I have sent you all relevant data on the for mentioned subject. As Im sure you are aware the 7th is widely regarded as one of our best sniper platoons. It is my hope that they are not wasted but used properly. These twelve men could hold back an entire invasion force. However this is why I am a colonel and not an admiral. You have my best wishes.
Colonel Tyler Raiment.
P.S. Drinks are on me next time.

12th member of 7th is currently awaiting approval. His Data was locked up too tight for me to get anything on him.
[Indent]Admiral Vasnak looked over the file a second time before he set it aside. It had been 12 hours since the covenant battle group had attacked Treva. The UNSC had sent a rapid response unit in, however they where quickly beaten by superior numbers. Now the Admiral stood on the bridge of the Carrier "New Order", flagship of his fleet. They had been sent to destroy the covenant fleet in orbit, which so far they where actually doing well at. However the two Covenant Carriers had been here long enough to have landed plenty of ground troops. Vasnak wanted to avoid another Marine massacre planet side, so he was planning on sending down all available recon assets. Unfortunately all available ground assets had already been taken out, as well as satellites. Which was why the Admiral was now hoping to bring in a ODST recon platoon. Although all ODST units are the best of the UNSC, recon units are always looked on with the highest regard. After all, it was a recon platoon that had first discovered the covenant "Elite", a recon platoon that had dismantled leader by leader an entire rebel invasion force on Eridanus, and a recon platoon that had kept there commanders appraised of every change in enemy movements on more battlefields then could be remembered. Recon would again save the day here on Treva.
[Indent]"Sir all covenant ships in system are either destroyed or venting atmosphere. Three of their four cruisers have already self-destructed, and the last is so damaged an archer missile would probably finish it off. Our losses include one Cruiser, 3 destroyers, 7 frigates destroyed, and another 12 ships damaged." Vasnak looked out the window into the space beyond. The burning hull of the "Savior" was still drifting through space, she was slowly being swallowed up by the planets gravity well. It was horrible how much more advanced covenant plasma weapons where. Vasnak was sure the only reason he'd won was because it was 32 to 8. But the time to question the space battle was still far away. "Send communication to Reach, Alpha Channel. Message Reads, "Space battle victory, have 7th marine recon sent out as soon as possible to commence planetary operations." Send message Lieutenant." Now all the admiral could do was wait. Hopefully the bunkers on the planets surface would remain hidden and keep the civilian population protected, but he knew it would be a miracle if they did. And he was sure that whatever ONI had discovered on the planet and had been busy excavating was worth far more then the millions of lives on the surface.
